Yep, that apology was fake as a homies fur coat. The brass told Ed to apologize and apologize real good or they would can him. This is not the first time Ed has had a run in with MSNBC management.
If you have a chance listen to his radio show the afternoon before he apologized on MSNBC - he wasn't sorry at all, in fact, he was making excuses and deflecting.
I say good riddance to bad trash, which is what this left-wing loon is.
How terribly embarrassed his wife and daughters/granddaughters must feel.....but maybe they're used to this kind of language from such a pig.
I'm curious is he's gone for good though, what with the discrepancy in the length of the "suspension".
Maybe he can join The Goreacle - but first you have to find the channel.

I say it is better for him to be able to say what he feels, he is a reflection of the left in general. The Ed Show is a glimpse into the huge divide in this country. No nicey-nice any more, Ed spells it out honestly and truly, he is a good representative for the left, that rant is how they TRULY feel.
I can't believe you are making excuses for Dr. Laura saying the N word over and over again while condemning Ed Shultz for calling Laura S. a media Sl*T! The incident with Dr. Laura was not taken out of context any more than what Ed said was taken out of context. Neither one was acceptable language for TV or the radio. Conservatives talking out of both sides of their mouths, like you are doing here, makes it hard to take anything they/you say seriously.
The difference is calling someone a name to insult them, or, as in Dr. Laura's case, using a word to desensitize them to that word. The Dr. wasn't calling anyone a name, she was drawing attention to the word itself. She apologized, because listeners were offended, and that was not her intent.
Schultz intended to offend........that's the difference.
That's probably going to go right over your head, but that is the truth of the matter.
Lastly, I didn't call for his censorship, I believe in free speech. I think people should be free to express themselves, so we know who they are, not who they pretend to be. This pc nonsense, just breeds hyper-sensitivity. Now people think they have a right not to be offended, but everything offends somebody.

A black caller accused Dr. Laura of being racially insensitive and Dr. Laura responded by saying the n word 10 times.
Spin it any way you want, the message is very clear. Here's a shovel.

Another example of IOKIYRAR. The Reps can call the President a Socialist; a Communist; a Nazi; a Terrorist; yell "you lie"; a pimp; Beck can say Obama's a racist, Limbaugh called him a racist, Ted Nugent can say, “Obama, he’s a piece of sh*t. I told him to suck on my machine gun” then get invited on Fox; they call the President's wife a monkey, etc.
Where's the outrage, here? Do Fox commentators every get sanctioned? No. Does Limbaugh? No
But if an MSNBC host says something off, even if not on MSNBC, he hammer comes down.
No one is forcing you to post. If you're through with the thread, pass on by.
Maybe obama? He's doing the same, even started a third war.
Your answer above, ""No one is forcing you to post. If you're through with the thread, pass on by."" has nothing to do with what I posted(???)
However, I can see where you'd like me to leave as I may constantly point out the ridiculousness of repugs complaining about the HORRIBLE IMPACT of a talk show host that YOU and others contend has only ten viewers... Maybe repugs ARE terrified of such a powerful lib talk show host...LOL! Only TEN viewers and look at the uproar!!!
It's almost as ridiculous as insisting that since one talk show host (who has only ten viewers) uses a word then ALL Democrats use that word...
because then it follows that ALL repugs think Africa is a country...

No, even if "someone's"() Love Goddess of Lesbians, Sarah Palin, thinks so.
And I really don't think ALL Repugs think so either....just like I don't believe that ALL repugs are fat slob drug addicted criminals just because they listen to Limbaugh.....now if only repugs could be so reasonable.....

FOX commentators don't sink to this level. Neither has Limbaugh.
